He's talking about my church site (which I created)!" Then I actually read the article. While sites that are just PDFs or scanned brochures are bad, I'm not convinced that brochureware is necessarily a bad thing. Many churches simple don't need a CMS-powered site, with all the complexity that entails. They simply need the online equivalent of a yellow pages ad. Consequently I'd say brochureware done right (e.g., <a href="http://www.fishmarketing.net/" rel="nofollow">Fish Marketing</a>) can be just the right fit for the church that doesn't have the technical savvy and/or manpower for something larger.
